Answer:

I think it's similes.

Explanation:

You can immediately cancel out allusions (reference to well-known person, place, or event outside the story) and hyperbole (an exaggeration, not to be entirely believed) leaving simile and metaphor. Because the word "like" shows up twice at the beginning and end- the roof came down steep and black <em>like a cowl</em>, their thick-leaved, far-reaching branches shadowed it <em>like </em>a pall- we can assume the answer is simile. Hope this helps!

Answer:

<u>D. Similes</u>

Explanation:

Similes use comparison to describe people, things, events, elements, and others while employing the words “like,” or “as.” The description of the setting uses this figurative language when it uses “like” to describe how the roof came down: “steep and black like a cowl” and to describe how the tree branches shadowed the roof: “like a pall.”

Aloiza [94]

Answer:

The literary device used in the above excerpt best establishes immediacy and sense of place commentary and existentialism.

<em>This passage heightens the sense of immediacy and reinforces the idea that something happening at the present moment. This is demonstrated in the question ¨Can I cry, now?¨</em>

<em>The sense of place was established at the very beginning and it is directly connected to immediacy as well as commentary.</em>

<em>Finally existentialism, the author composed a piece of literature that contains, to varying degrees, elements of existential or proto-existential thought.</em>
